Trim the fat,

When the gain of your creative work
goes to those with more than they need
it's time to rethink the game
take back your offerings
refuse to let them
be used to drive
engagement
and sell
ads

Sue was the harvester of dank souls
She stalked them on a dating app
and in lonely singles bars
where they hung in droves
They were drawn to her
sliding closer
not knowing
their end
came

It has drummed a rhythm without fail
for a bit over five decades
I don't know how many ticks
or tocks are left in me
remaining precious
stilled I listen
to attend
the last
beat

No one reads poetry anymore.
If they do it's by accident:
a little verse lobbed into
your feed like a chatty
grenade. A secret
bit of culture,
you spit out
once you
know.

Listening to heavy rain clouds pass
Its cargo lost along the way
Droplets falling toward Earth
Hot pots, my sun parched chair
Pitter patter song
The lullaby
A weary
Writer
Needs

The electric buzz of cicadas
A summer morning symphony
From natures wild orchestra
Hungry birds, honey bees
Spoiled by urban sounds
Ofbeat hoovers
Power drills
Idling
Bus

Still, the Mediterranean sea
Shimmers like a moonlit mirror
Reflecting hidden beauty
With its island jewels
Sun soaked aplenty
Exotic tastes
From Corsairs
Plundered
Chests

A life written down in old notebooks
Now gathering dust on the shelf
Decades of a time lived fully
Prose, sometimes poems
Often just nonsense
Inane? But no!
Do you see?
This is
Me!
